What should I charge?

Mr. Steamer: $0.25 is fine and dandy if you are only charging for the traffic areas with minimal furniture moving.  I don't care if you cleaning with dancing girls ( on the tables of cource.)  Lets find a deaf, dumb and blind mute who is going to pay you over $6,000.00 to clean their office.  I know here comes the op bridgade. I am only trying to justify an example to apply for quoting on this project.

Well Steaminpile..... I think there are few things you have to take into account.....

1)how much stuff are you going to have to move... 2) how dirty is the carpet 3) is it a day or night cleaning 4) air movers or no air movers 5) do you have to vac first

What you describe sounds like a lot of work to me..... anything with moving involved can't start at any less than .25 cents per sq ft

Just make sure you leave enough room in the pricing just in case you have to go back and do touch ups.....

I like to be on the higher side and just sell myself and my service.

I'm gonna move... i'm gonna pre vac... I'm gonna bring 2 guys with me.... etc etc etc

WE just did our cheapest price on the L & N building, .16 but it was 118,600 square feet.

 

You want the job but want to make money, what are you offering to them to sway them your way?

We offered cleaner, longer lasting cleaning WITH bio-based chems, now after doing the job once it has become a govenment requirement here.

 

So give them a reason to pay your price.

25,000 sq.ft. of office space/move all chairs,garbage cans etc.

commercial grade level loop.

I was going to throw an estimate of .15 sq.ft. at them

too high?

too low?

I could get away with .10 a sq.ft. and still make money but I wanna start charging more..........and I know they want ME to do the job.

 

 

MUST be HWE'd
